A huge congratulations to Laura Hayes who won silver in the intermediate girls and also well done to our girls team who came 4th last weekend. Full report here

Ballycotton 10

Well done to all of our athletes who ran the Ballycotton 10 last Sunday. We had great numbers again this year and everyone came away with a souvenir t-shirt to mark the 40th running of the race which was won by Mick Clohisey (who represented Ireland in the Rio Olympics). Siobhan O’Doherty followed on from winning the Dungarvan 10 with another strong run to take the women’s title. Full results are available here and also on the cork running blog

Parkrun 5k – Ballincollig

Also a big well done to our C25K runners who completed the 5k Park Run on Saturday.

Last Sunday 16 athletes from our club traveled to Dungarvan for the annual John Treacy Dungarvan 10 mile road race. After a hard winters training it was the first big outing in 2017 and everyone looked well in the new club kit.
